At the 2011 Geneva Motor Show Ford showed of its vision of its global SUV, Ford had the Vertrex on display at its concept car stand. Ford claims that the global compact SUV could lead the industry in terms of design and fuel efficiency.

Like the new global Ford Focus the concept SUV is based on Ford's C-segment platform which is also shared with the C Max and the Ford Grand C Max. The concept demonstrated Ford's vision for a sleeker, sportier and more stylish compact sport utility vehicle.

Frank Davis, Vice President Product Development, Ford of Europe said about the Vertrex concept, "Vertrek concept is a no-compromise solution we feel utility vehicle customers will embrace around the world. This new design is sleeker and more fuel efficient and delivers the capability, including people and cargo volume, customers demand globally."Frank Davis, Vice President Product Development, Ford of Europe said about the Vertrex concept, "Vertrek concept is a no-compromise solution we feel utility vehicle customers will embrace around the world.

The Ford Vertrek concept SUV combines Ford's kinetic design styling and driving quality with outstanding levels of load space, trailer-tow and off-road capability, promising a SUV that meets the needs of next-generation compact cross-over customers around the world.The Ford Vertrek concept SUV combines Ford's kinetic design styling and driving quality with outstanding levels of load space, trailer-tow and off-road capability, promising a SUV that meets the needs of next-generation compact cross-over customers around the world.

The design of the Vertrex is much more than just skin deep, the design has been created to aerodynamically help increase fuel economy and lower CO2 emissions. According to Ford, preliminary data shows that a production vehicle based around the Vertrex concept would be at least 5% more aerodynamically efficient than current comparable Ford European and North American models.

This is just another example of car makers leaning towards compact crossover models rather than traditional saloon or hatchback models such as the Ford Focus in Birmingham.
